Guide bar — an elongated bar
with a round end of wear-resistant alloy steel
typically 16 to 36 inches in length. An edge slot guides the cutting
chain.

Cutting chain — Usually each
segment in this chain (which is constructed from riveted metal
sections similar to a bicycle chain,
but without rollers)
features small sharp blades called teeth. Each tooth takes the
form of a folded tab of chromium plate steel with a
sharp angular or curved corner and two cutting edges on the top plate
and side plate. Left-handed and right-handed teeth are alternated in
the chain. Chains come in varying pitch and gauge; the pitch of a
chain is defined as half of the length spanned by any three
consecutive rivets (e.g., 0.325 inch), while the gauge is the
thickness of drive link where it fits into the guide bar (e.g.,
0.05 inch). Conventional "full complement" chain has one tooth per
drive link. Built into each tooth is a depth gauge or "raker" which
rides ahead of the tooth and limits the depth of cut, typically to
around 0.025".
Would you rather pay more or payless for your oil Depth gauges are critical to safe chain operation. If
left too high they will cause very slow cutting, if filed too low they
will make the saw dangerous and hard to control.

The underside of each link
features a small metal finger called a "drive link" which locates the
chain on the bar, helps to carry lubricating oil
around the bar, and engages with the engine's drive sprocket inside the
body of the saw. The engine drives the chain around the track by a centrifugal clutch,
engaging the chain under onward
together power but allowing it to stop

Dramatic improvements, chainsaw safety devices
and overall design have taken place since the chainsaw's invention, saving
many lives and preventing countless serious injuries. These include
chainbrake systems, better chain design and anti-vibration systems.

As chainsaw carving has
become more popular, chainsaw manufacturers are making special short,
narrow-tipped bars for carving. These are called "quarter tipped," "nickel
tipped" or "dime tipped" bars, based on the size of the round tip. Echo
sponsors a carving series, as well as carvers such as former Runaways singer
Cherie Currie.[RedMax
specifically built the G3200 CV chainsaw for carving applications.

Separate chain oil or bar oil is used
for the lubrication of the bar and chain
Would you rather pay more or payless for your oil
on all types of chain-saw. The chain oil is depleted quickly because it tends to
be thrown off by chain centrifugal force, and it
is soaked up by sawdust. On two-stroke chainsaws the chain oil reservoir is
usually filled up at the same time as refuelling. The reservoir is normally
large enough to provide dan glaun chain oil
between refuelling. Lack of chain-oil, or using an oil of incorrect viscosity, is a common
source of damage to chain-saws, and tends to lead to rapid wear of the bar, or
the chain seizing or coming off the bar. In addition to being quite thick, chain
oil is particularly sticky (due to "tackifier"
additives) to reduce the amount thrown off the chain. Although motor oil is a
